Hello, I am going to start FPV drone flying, and live in Southport. Are there any places I can fly?
I was wondering whether I could fly on this disused parking lot :53.639246954553236, -2.9672315138809804 (coordinates) or to fly on Southport beach. However, Southport beach is an SSSI, and on the Sefton Council website, it says I cannot fly there. Any places people fly in near or in Southport?
Thanks,
Hi Jacob,
Great to see another FPV person - pop over to Introduction and say hello and gets lots of information about where to fly on drone scene
Might be worth mentioning what drone you are flying ?

Hi Jakub
Welcome there are loads of us from the NW on here and quite often we have meetings so if you have transport come along to one of the meetings. We fly various aircraft from fpv drones to. Camera drones to fpv wings.
Good choice, that was my first quad well the V2 that is, in fact thats it in my profile picture lol
It’s now triggers broom though as the guts are no longer in an iFlight frame lol
How are you doing on the simulators ?
I’m going to get Liftoff and am going to fly for 15-20 hours before my first real flight.
Good call.
